“When all doors are shut and you have nowhere to go, that is when you go within. Every crisis is an opportunity and you are the beginning.”

Your worries, your feelings, your thoughts arise in your own mind. You are totally responsible for all your feelings – how you feel, what you think, what you do. You are responsible.

All these seven colors are part of one rainbow, yet they are all different. They have their own quality, their own identity, their own flavor to it. So it is a rainbow. The Divine loves diversity, that is why he made us all different.

Even if you win in ego it is a loss. Even if you lose in love it is a victory.

Love is not an emotion. It is your very existence.

For external beauty, you put on things; for real beauty, you have to drop all things. For external beauty you have to have make-up; for real beauty you only have to realize that you are already made up.

Make your smile cheaper and anger expensive!

If we sit deep in meditation, the glow within the body will brighten, and will expand and spread outside. That is Devi Puja.

Even stupid people have a role to play in your life. They make you wiser and more patient.

When heart speaks and heart listens, harmony is produced. When head talks and head listens, argument is produced.

Life teaches you the art of letting go in every event. When you have learnt to let go, you will be joyful and as you start being joyful, more will be given to you.

Spiritual knowledge improves intuitive ability, innovative ability and communication.

People search for joy everywhere not knowing that the Self is the source of all joy.

A child does not try to know the mother, it simply has faith in her. In the same way, having faith in the Divine is the source of the greatest strength.

Nature loves you ten times more than a mother loves her newborn.

Feeling and experiencing infinity within this finite body, living timelessness within the time span of life – this is what you are here for.

Ego is just a feeling of having a wall between you and others. There is no wall. You belong to me and I belong to you. You are accepted the way you are.

If there be light, then there is darkness; if cold, heat; if height, depth; if solid, fluid; if hard, soft; if rough, smooth; if calm, tempest; if prosperity, adversity; if life, death.

Adversity is the state in which man most easily becomes acquainted with himself, being especially free of admirers then.

You don’t develop courage by being happy in your relationships everyday. You develop it by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity.

Make sure when adversity comes your way, your family sees you smiling in its face!

Never to suffer would never to have been blessed.

If you have a strong belief in yourself, in what you are doing and what you want to do, no adversity is too difficult to overcome.

The biggest adversary in our life is ourselves.

A person who smiles in the face of adversity, probably has a scapegoat.
